Procedure

L-Leucine benzyl ester (186.65 g, 0.843M), ethyl 2-bromopropionate (153.1 g, 0.846M) and N-methylmorpholine (165 ml, 1.5M) were dissolved in dry CH3CN (800 ml) and refluxed for 12 h. The solvent was removed in vacuo and the residue partitioned between H2O (21) and EtOAc (3×11). The organic phase was washed with brine, dried and evaporated in vacuo. The resulting oil was chromatographed on SiO2 in 7.5% EtOAc in hexane to give the title compound (70 g) as the faster running fraction; (Found: C,67.02; H,8.42; N,4.25; C18H27NO4 requires C,67.26; H,8.47; N,4.36%); νmax film 1730 cm-1 ; δ(CDCl3) 0.88 and 0.9 (each 3H, each d, each J=6.5 Hz, CH(CH3)2) 1.23 (3H,t,J=7 Hz,CH3CH2O), 1.27 (3H,d,J=7 Hz,CH3CH), 1.5 (2H,m,CHCH2), 1.7 (1H, heptet, J=7 Hz, CH(CH3)2), 2.2 (1H, br, s,NH), 3.32 (2 H,m,CHNHCH), 4.10 and 4.12 (each 1H, each q, each J=7 Hz, OCH2CH3), 5.12 (2H,s, OCH2C6H5) and 7.34 (5H,s, C6H5); m/e 322 (100%; [m+1])+, 260 (15), 186 (26) and 112 (28).
